Originally, AST 110 was designed to be done in a lab workbook that was distributed at the
start of the semester. At the beginning of the 2000-2001 academic year, Professor Batuski, the
course instructor, with the assistance of Adrienne Traxler, then an undergraduate student,
redesigned the units so that they could be incorporated into WebCT, an internet-based course
tool for using online instruction. A major factor in the redesign of the course is that each
astronomy lab lesson is available to every student throughout the semester online for them to
read and study at their convenience. When the students come to class, they work in groups of
three and take a quiz, specifically “synchronized” with a descriptive explanatory tutorial, as a
group. Each individual in the group receives a grade for that lab based on the performance of
the group on the quiz.
